Allopurinol is a medication used for the treatment of gout, belonging to the category of uric acid production inhibitors. It is mainly used to lower blood uric acid levels to prevent gout attacks.
Allopurinol works by blocking the action of the enzyme that produces uric acid in the body, thereby reducing uric acid production. As a result, the uric acid levels in the blood decrease, alleviating symptoms of gout.
